Mascara Wars: Day 9 – Smashbox Bionic Mascara

Smashbox Bionic Mascara

Color: Jet Black (rich black)

Brush: A full brush with spiky bristles.

Consistency: Thick but not clumpy.

Application: Works very quickly, color is deep, deep black. Brush has stiff bristles that really get in there to separate.

How It Looks: Lashes look extremely black, long and curled. Very dramatic.

Removal: Difficult. Water-resistant formula tooks several washings to remove. I washed twice with Bliss Lid and Lash Wash, then resorted to soap.

Reaction: Dazzled.

Notes: This is professional-strength mascara but it was very easy to use. Definitely a keeper.
